"Will and his crew were very knowledgeable and professional throughout the entire process of the job they worked on for me. I bought a property and needed someone to excavate the land in order for me to build. Will came in and really helped me through the whole process. Not one time did I have to question or ask about anything. He is extremely knowledgeable and impressive! Go with Hrinko Excavating for your next job!"

"First of all, the communication with Tom was fantastic. We had questions; he had answers. Secondly we were able to get on the schedule quickly even though we requested a Saturday strip and wax at our business. So that was wonderful. But most importantly, we got a quality job done by super nice people for a very fair price. We will definitely be using Cleaner Than Clean again! Thanks!"

"Owner showed up with a small crew and a crazy new piece of equipment. Excavated down below my foundation and to the septic tank. Came into the basement and jackhammered the floor. Removed all the old terracotta pipe inside and out. Installed all new PVC pipe all the way down to the septic tank. Put gravel down to protect the new pipe. Poured concrete in the basement to close the floor back up. Only took one day to get the new pipe in. Came back the next to close the ground and floor up. Great experience, basement no longer smell like sewage."

"I am very impressed with the retaining wall and parking pad the was completed by NTK Excavating. Nick was very transparent with the estimate and was able to work with me on a cost that I was able to afford and still complete the project to satisfaction. They were able to fit my project into their schedule and complete it in a timely manner. They were very friendly, helpful and professional through the process. Their work on the wall exceeded my expectations and if needed again in the future I would 100% give them a call."

"Previous homeowner left us with a mess and we needed new gas lines installed in our house. Gary did an awesome job on everything. He explained why certain things couldn’t be repaired, installed all new properly rated pipe, and rerouted everything so that it was more efficient and it looks clean and tidy. Highly recommend"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables.
